The Death of Gameboy Advance.

[Apex]

Final Fantasy VI advance will be the last major title to be released for the little system, in the year 2007. It's had a good six year lifespan, and has brought almost (If not all of us.) joy at some time. The launch of the DS made the gameboy advance pretty much obsolete, but did not destroy it, since I could also play Gameboy advance games, so production of games continued for a few year of the DS launch.

It's gonna be kind of sad to see no new major titles being released. (Worthy titles to say the least, none of those stupid disney channel television show, crap excuses of games, and poorly made licensed games such as KingKong and other horrible movie titles.) So, let's take the time to look back at exceedingly good games that have been released on this little console over the years. Remakes or not, games that made you carry your GBA everywhere you went..

Games I really enjoyed:

Final Fantasy Dawn of Souls, Final Fantasy V advance, Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, Megaman Zero I&II, Pokemon Emerald (Yeah, it's a good game, shut up.), Wario Ware and Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap.

Go ahead, tell us your favorite games, so we can honor this little ol' bundle of once astonishiing technology.

The GBA had so many bad games, though. The bad:good ratio of GBA games was like 80:1.
Awful games like Finding Nemo and Banjo Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge made me reluctant to even buy a GBA.. but there were some great games too, like Castlevania.. I remember more than one occasion in which I busted out Castlevania at the movie theatre(The Notebook).

Sure will miss that ol' game machine... Not for nothing, but anyone else notice the trend of Final Fantasy games and think that VII will end up on the DS some time in the near future? If that happens, I might actually play to the end of it...

[Razor]

Who cares? DS = way of the future.

Did anyone care when PSX stopped making games? :p

[Ben]

well, if seven comes out for DS, then 8,9 are good bets too.

I can say that I'd enjoy that. It's not like the DS can't handle it or anything. Hell, it's highly plausible, what with Square being a money-munching machine... Akin to Pac Man in a way...

Anyone who says FFT:A was good has either never played FFT or have horrible taste.
